Summary: Wonderful for kids of all ages.
Review: You know, I'm really at a loss to explain the depth of my liking for these books, I will say though, that Harry Potter's first 4 years at Hogwarts have given more reading pleasure than I can fit into this review. Harry and the magical world he inhabits are wonderfully crafted by Joanne Rowling and as you read through the set, you can see her style developing and growing in confidence along with her central characters. It's a rare thing for an adult to be able to recapture the sense of wonder and delight that for me was an everyday part of my childhood, but the inspired pen of Ms Rowling has given me more of that feeling than I thought possible. I'm REALLY looking forward to the 5th book in the series.

Summary: A must for every child!
Review: Before TV, before movie theaters, before radio, there were books! Long after many people had given them their eulogies, books are back and popular once again with children of all ages thanks to the Harry Potter series. Don't let your child be the only muggle that does not know how to put Fluffy to sleep - the Harry Potter series is a must have.

Summary: Hardly Can Wait For #5
Review: Hi! I have all 4 books and loved reading them all. So did my Mom and Dad. J. K. Rowling has great imagination and is a terrific writer. I love fantasies. Mom does too. So she told me I should also make a recomendation. In the meantime of waiting for the next Harry Potter, we read another book thats like a fantasy. Its called West Point: by Norman Thomas Remick. It has a Harry, but not Harry Potter. Its not magic and wizards. Its true stories. It was great. Educational. I learned a lot. But I still can hardly wait for the # 5 Harry Potter book to come out. I'm sure it will be just as exciting as the other ones.
Thanks for listening,
Lisa

Summary: Harry----the books......PERFECT!!!
Review: 1,000 words are not necessary to express the extraordinary magic of the Harry Potter world. One can simply say that anyone who has missed the opportunity to share the experiences of Harry and his wonderful friends and fearsome foes, has completely missed something immeasureably special in this lifetime.

Summary: Absolutely Wonderful!!
Review: I'm an extremely avid reader, I've read A LOT of books throughout my life and believe me when I tell you, this is one of the best series of books ever written!
The plot is just so absorbing, the characters are incredibly great and there is this gereat magical, warm feeling inside of you when you read these books. There is truly a whole different world on the pages of the books. J. K. Rowling is one of the best writers of our times, she has managed to make a marvelous series of books which captivates everyone from your twelve year old brother to your eighty year old grandmother. I personally think that these books are not so apt for kids, as much as they are for young adults and forward. Don't get me wrong, kids will totally enjoy them, and will be left hungering for more, but they won't get the same feeling that older people, simply because they have not went through situations as those in the books, and I'm not refering to magic, but to all the school experiences, adventures, twists in social relationships, etc. These are definately some of the best books ever written, and you shouldn't be stranged if in a couple of years your grandchildren's or your children's literature books have a whole chapter on them and J. K. Rowling!

Summary: The Best Books on The Market
Review: These four books are my most favorite out of all childerens book. In all they are easy and educated in reading, I've learn new words and words visually in my mind. Like a new vocabulary.
The concept of Harry Potter and his background is a very, very, very creative and original. I think the kind of wording in this book keeps the reader hanging on. To me I cant wait until the next three volumes come out and that isn't for another couple of years.
My favorite out of the four so far is The Goblet of Fire. It has the most imagination and adventure of them all, and I want to read it again and again.
I think that the author, J.K. Rowling, should get alot of nobel prizes for excellant writing. If this dont make you want to read the stories than maybe you should just read it to find out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just Adding my Two Cents
Review: I know this series has recieved a lot of praise as well as criticism, and I am sure that there have been tons of reviews on these books. I just figured I would go ahead and add my two cents.

I am a fourth grade teacher and never before have I seen such enthusiam for books. I have one student in my class read all four books in less than one month. ONE MONTH!!!! (That's pretty good for fourth grade considering the fourth book is so thick it could be used as a door stopper.)

And you know, it's not just children who are adoring these books. I see adults walking around, carrying the books with them becuase they just *have* to find out what happens next and couldn't put the book down.

I admit, I am one such adult. I am holding my breath for the fifth book and am so worried that it will not live up to the first four. But hopefully, Rowling will continue to wow all of us with the continuation of this wonderfully enchanting series.

Summary: excellent
Review: Harry Potter...hmm...what can I say, it brings out the imagination of a child. The book was wonderful. I enjoyed it very much with all the action going on at one time. It seemed to me as if there was so much action going on, but yet still you could understand it. The writing style is wonderful, easy to understand and fun to read. Just think when you read Harry Potter you are entering into a dream world of magic and fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I can't put my Harry Potter books down!
Review: I began reading volume one in the spring and finished with the fourth book this summer. I wasn't even interested in Harry Potter
despite all the publicity. My mother had bought the set and once I started reading there was no stopping. I don't know how I'm going to make it until the next book comes out. Everyone keeps kidding me saying "what are you going to read while waiting for the next book?" I can't imagine reading anything else!

Rating: 4 stars
